Won't record video? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just got my nexus a couple days and it's been great up until now. I recently thought I was recording a video and was dissapointed to find that not only did it not record, but won't record anything. Nothing happens when I press the record button in video mode. Takes pictures just fine, plays video just fine. Everything else is working great. I hope there's some simple thing I'm doing wrong but I know my way around an android phone and I don't understand what could be the issue.
Thanks for any help!

Video recording bug ?

Hi, i just received my Sensation today , i'm pretty happy with it so far but then i found a nasty bug.
After i record a video, looks like the soundcard of the phone just went dead, i cant play video , cant play music, there's no sound from the phone at all. I have to restart the phone to get sound back.
I also tried to uncheck stereo recording and different resolution but still no result. And this happens every single time.
Has anyone encountered this problem before ? is this a normal bug ?

[Q] Best Audio Recording Apps?

Hey guys,
I'm curious to see if there's anyone doing audio recording from their GS3.
I'm a musician so when I'm not at home, I often will just pull my phone out to record new ideas.
In the past I've just used Voice Recorder and it seemed to do alright, but I'm not sure if it's the phone or the app's updates
the quality seems pretty terrible lately. (Possibly something going on from running CM10 and the audio recording drivers??)
Anyone have any suggestions for recording? I don't care about recording calls,
Something that can pick up a solid range from a guitar or bass without sounding like crap.
Thanks in advance!!
Try TapeMachine Recorder its awesome!

I also use Voice Recorder - works fine for me. I would be great if you posted back with results from other apps - especially quality comparison.

Personally I use SoundCloud only because if I want to record a new riff and then I wanna hear it later, I can just go on my computer browser (soundcloud.com) and access everything I recorded. The other nice thing about using SoundCloud is the REC widget which adds a REC button to your home screen to quickly record new stuff!
Once I tried out Voice Pro I realized nothing else is worth my time. Doesn't stop me from trying other stuff, but nothing else can live up to it.

[Q] Video problems please help if possible?

Hey guys at a major issue right now i was recording a video of my daughter earlier she was at sesame place and the phone was on a low power like under 10% but it recorded just fine as i was watching the video. I then looked at the video on video playback mode with even few different programs and it just plays back with lines and i thought ok maybe its a ROM issue with the video playback but i took videos of her before this before battery was under 10% and worked fine now im thinking is that the issue? I let the phone charge and still video does not play correctly sound plays perfectly but no video.
Really trying to find a solution to this because it was a great time and want to be able to share it with her. i can upload the video if needed
ROM - extreme sensation v1.2 im pretty sure
Thanks all for the reading
If you need me to upload the video i will if u can find the problem thank u all

I was hoping to find a solution here...
I have a similar problem, I do have the regular recording time, and my videos don't look as bad as yours, but the different colour layers of the video don't line up... it's very annoying...
I tried reinstralling the app, trouble shooting and even setting my phone back to factory settings....
I reported the bug at Snapchat but they aren't of any help. they just tell me to trouble shoot.
If there's any solutions, I'd love to know!

[Q] nexus 5 microphone broken? Only noise in video, skype,etc

Hey team, I haz a sad.
I got my Nexus 5 on Thursday last week and have been very pleased with the shape, the way it handles, and with KitKat. THus I was very excited
to take it out and play with it over the weekend.
I was trying out the camera, the GPS, etc. I shot a short video as well. When I tried to play the video back, I got maybe 5 seconds of good audio, then just static/noise for the rest of the video. Weird, I thought. I tried again, same thing. THen I noticed my voice search was no longer working. Then I tried a test skype call, you know, the call testing center. The playback of the test call was just static as well. I think my microphone is broken...
Is there any setting or combination of settings I could try to fix this before I call Google support? I've been all over the googles and g+ looking for similar issues and haven't seen anything... maybe I just got a bad one?

I'm having the same problem! Any luck fixing it?? What is interesting is that if I call a number and I turn the microphone mute on and off, I can hear that when it is on mute there is less "fuzz" white noise. It is as if the microphone is picking up something, just not actual noises...
If you hven't flashed anything (ROMs, recovery, etc) and your phone is COMPLETELY FACTORY STOCK, you could try seeing into a factory reset for the phone. Some may have issue with software to produce the static noise. But, if the reset doesn't work, then it's the hardware and you need to return it for replacement through Google. If you have flashed custom software, then it may have been a bad flash or something related. Tell me more about what you have on you phone.
